Learn what the Pancake Mole does in Grow a Garden, including its Pancake Hunter ability and all possible treasure rewards.

The Pancake Mole is one of the rarest pets in Grow a Garden, introduced during the Cooking update. This pet is more than just a cute mole with a breakfast-themed design; it’s actually a hidden treasure hunter. Every so often, the Pancake Mole digs underground and finds valuable items, including Sheckles and gear that can improve your garden’s efficiency.
It only comes from hatching Gourmet Eggs; to earn a Gourmet Egg, you must give cooked meals to Chris P, the pig chef found at the center of the island. But if you’re lucky enough to own one, here’s everything it can do and what you might get from its burrowing adventures.
